The first scene was the church, then the altar
Where we claimed each other, with tears of joy we cried
Our friends wished us luck there forever
As we walked from the church, side by side
The next scene was a crowded courtroom
And like strangers we sat side by side
Then I heard the judge make his decision
And no longer were we man and wife
I hate the sight of that courtroom
Where man-made laws push god's laws aside
Then the clerk wrote our story in the record
A church, a courtroom and then goodbye
We walked from that courtroom together
We shook hands and once again we cried
Then it was the end of our story
A church, a courtroom and then goodbye

Patsy Cline, pseudonimo di Virginia Patterson Hensley (1932-1963), è stata una delle più influenti cantautrici country statunitensi. Nata in Virginia, Patsy iniziò la sua carriera musicale negli anni '50, cantando in locali e radio locali. Il suo talento vocale potente e versatile le permise di conquistare il pubblico con un mix di country tradizionale, pop e ballad emozionanti. Il suo successo arrivò nel 1961 con il singolo "Crazy", scritto da Willie Nelson, che divenne un classico del genere country e la consacrò come una delle stelle più luminose della musica americana. Altri successi includono "I Fall to Pieces", "Walkin' After Midnight" e "She's Got You". La sua carriera fu purtroppo interrotta prematuramente in un incidente aereo nel 1963, all'età di soli 30 anni.
